Olenka Bastian and Jonathan Chandler are Silent Winters, an Ottawa folk duo with a warm, intimate repertoire born of cold months and fireside contemplation. Channeling a musical chemistry perfected while harmonizing in rock outfit Amos the Transparent, Bastian and Chandler craft pared-down, acoustic compositions supporting pure vocals and heart-melting lyrics. They join the creative heritage of Simon & Garfunkel, The Milk Carton Kids and The Civil Wars. 2017 Canadian Folk Music Award nominees for Ensemble of the Year and Emerging Artist of the Year, and their recent tour included a stop at the National Arts Centre.
